This revelation about Rodrygo’s fatherhood came as a shock to many, as he had never publicly acknowledged having children before. The Real Madrid forward, known for his electrifying pace and technical skills, recently introduced his twin boys, Rayan and Ravy, to the world through social media.
Following the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, Rodrygo has been taking some time off to spend with his children before returning to action with Real Madrid. Fans were further surprised when photos surfaced of him celebrating his twins’ first birthday, as well as spending time with his father.
The story of Rodrygo’s fatherhood traces back to a Brazilian court ruling in February 2023, which officially recognized him as the father of the twins born to Pamella Cristina Costa. Before the ruling, the footballer had kept this aspect of his personal life entirely private. The situation became more complex when the mother of the children sought custody through legal means, leading to a formal court case.

Rodrygo reportedly met Pamella in 2018, and their brief relationship resulted in her pregnancy. At the time of the twins’ birth, he was abroad while she gave birth in Brazil. After the court proceedings, Rodrygo ensured everything was handled legally, with clear agreements regarding custody and visitation.
Despite the legal challenges, Rodrygo now appears to embrace fatherhood, as seen in his recent social media posts. His bond with his sons is becoming more evident, marking a new chapter in his personal life while he continues his journey as a key player for Real Madrid.
